Mechanical Mixer
The Mechanical Mixer is a mechanical component that applies Mixing recipes and shapeless Crafting recipes to items in Basins.

Mechanical Mixer can be mined using any pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.

Crafting
Name | Ingredients | Crafting Recipe |
---|---|---|
Mechanical Mixer | Andesite Alloy + Cogwheel + Andesite Casing + Whisk |
Usage
The Mechanical Mixer is powered by an internal cogwheel, and will behave as one to any adjacent components, relaying and reversing rotation sideways.
The Mixer requires a minimum rotational speed of 32 RPM from its power source to work. Mixers will process ingredients faster the more speed it is given.
To work, a Mixer must be placed directly above a Basin, with a 1 block gap. When a valid recipe is inserted by throwing the ingredients in the Mixer, the Mixer will automatically combine the ingredients.
Automating Shapeless Recipes
All shapeless crafting recipes can be made automatically using the Mechanical Mixer by inserting required items into the Basin under the mixer. An example of such recipe is:
Automating Brewing
All Brewing recipes can be made automatically using the Mechanical Mixer by insering the required items and fluids into the Basin under the mixer.
Mixing
The Mechanical Mixer may be used to perform mixing recipes, which are not possible to make anywhere else. Those recipes include:

|
Brass Ingot | Copper Ingot + Zinc Ingot |
|
Builder's Tea | Any Leaves + Water + Milk |
|
Chocolate | Sugar + Cocoa Beans + Milk |
|
Chromatic Compound | Glowstone + Powdered Obsidian + Polished Rose Quartz |
|
Crushed Brass | Crushed Copper Ore + Crushed Zinc Ore |
